Update 1.2: List of Changes

List of Changes

1. Main Changes:

Changes to Personal Missions:

The third operation (Object 279 early) of the new campaign is available:
- Added three new mission types to be completed within a certain number of battles; otherwise, progress is reset. The three mission types are as follows:
  - Accumulative: Achieve a certain value by a specified parameter; mission lasts until the player fulfills the set of conditions or runs out of attempts.
  - Series: Complete the set condition within several battles; the number of attempts is bigger than the number of required completions.
  - Continuous: Require fulfilling the set condition in every battle of the series; a failed attempt interrupts the series.
- A Pause button (in the operation’s mission profiles) allows suspending a mission; during this time progress is not lost and preserved until the player continues.
Reward Screen Improvements:
- Displays cumulative conditions in the operation profile according to the common interface of such missions.
- Displays missions with interchangeable conditions properly ("OR")
Improved the mission profile by removing the Cancel button.

2. Maps:

Maps Reworked in HD:

Empire's Border (for Tier IV-X vehicles; available in Standard, Encounter, and Assault modes)
Widepark (for Tier IV-VI vehicles; available in Standard mode)
Highway (for Tier IV-X vehicles, available in Standard mode)

4. Clan-Related Changes:

All players who belong to a clan get a style applicable to a vehicle of any nation (the all-season style changes depending on the map type); the style is added to the player’s account when they join a clan and removed when the they leave the clan.
The Stronghold option was replaced with the Clans option for non-clan players; also changed the option content.
The Clan screen now provides information about clans and their advantages and a list of clan players can join without application approval (immediately after clicking the button).
Players can now create a clan for Credits (instead of Gold); creating a clan costs 1,000,000 Credits.
The cooldown period for joining a new clan after leaving one is now 24 hours (was previously 48)

5. Known Issues:
